War, war, war, and more war...

Recalling Juan Wallace's challenge to Bill Kristol (talked about here on Monday) on Fox News this past weekend, more ultra-conservative, ultra-authoritarian freakazoid conservatives have come out of their holes to criticize Bush on his perceived weakness in foreign policy.

They've got part of it right. Bush is the worst foreign policy president in history. However, their solution is, as the title indicates, more war. They want the U.S. to bomb Iran now, not later. Same for North Korea. As if dropping bombs is the answer to every challenge.

Republicans in government are placing themselves firmly behind whatever the Doofus-in-Chief decides. Republicans in the punditry are divided - either Bush has overstepped his powers (see Buchanan, Will, and Buckley all question whether Iraq was a good idea) or he's not being aggressive enough (Kristol, Gingrich, et al. believe that we should make war, war, war...).

It's just too bad that all this division will be eradicated by the chest-thumping, red-meat placebos of "ban abortion," "ban gay marriage," "ban flag burning," and "screw the environment and Al Gore."
